A few years ago I had an amazing dream. In the dream Smith Wigglesworth spoke to me and said “1 million people”!
I knew in my spirit that he meant that 1 million people would be saved in Scotland. Now I want to ask a simple question. How is that going to happen? I mean we live in a nation that doesn’t seem to want to know God so how could this be possible? We have been working so hard and bring in so little fruit.
Well before the Lewis revival of the 1940’s two dear old ladies caught a burden to pray for revival. One night dear old Peggy (one of the old ladies) had a vision and saw the church crowded with young people. Now Peggy was so impacted by this vision that she went to the local minister to tell him what she saw!!
Now the churches (just like us today) had tried all sorts of evangelical outreaches without much, if any, fruit. Peggy asked the Minister a question that day that I believe still needs to be asked today! Let me quote what she says:
“You’ve tried mission, you’ve tried special evangelists, Mr. McCie have you tried God?”
Wow, have you tried God she said!! What a question! From that night on the minister and other leaders began to pray that God would visit the isle of Lewis again. Well I wont go into all that happened except to say God did come and swept thousands into the kingdom. God visited the island. People in there hundreds turned up at church crying out to God for salvation. The first night of the revival 500 people suddenly turned up outside the church while down the road another 300 turned up at the police station. Why? Because God had come to the island and unsaved people knew it. They didn’t need to be convinced of anything, God had turned up and they knew they needed to give their lives to him.
It isn’t difficult for God to save a nation. He just needs to turn up and the nation will tremble. We need to realise that our human efforts can’t do it. “It’s not by might and its not by power but by my Spirit says the Lord”! In the midst of all our efforts I can hear the voice of old Peggy asking, “ Have you tried God”! We need to be possessed by him, filled by him, submitted to him and aligned with His ways. He is looking for a people that will let him come and do what he wants. The question is, are we willing?

ot a reference to my height by the way) I want to try and encourage and inspire people in Scotland and beyond to press into God until we see Scotland Ablaze with the fire of the Holy Spirit!!
John Knox once prayed “Give me Scotland or i die”! We too should pray such prayers and we too will see our nation on fire once again. Check out the fire over Scotland prophecy below because i believe this is the heart of God for our nation at this time.
Burning, burning, burning this fire is. Like a forest fire it is burning. And from the tiny villages it can be seen. From the far away hills it can be seen. Old men stand and wonder, mothers leap for joy. The prodigal has come home and the fire leaps from girl and boy!
all i could see was the side view of it from just in front of the saddle back. I saw the riders left leg and i noticed writing on the thigh of the rider and “knew” it was Jesus.I was overwhelmed at this as i could feel the anticipation of the horse and could see the muscles on its hind leg twitch and hear it pawing at the ground just waiting for the command to gallop!!
